(a) the displacement is zero
(d) the average velocity is zero
Explanation:
In one hour the tip of minute hand comes to the same position, so its displacement and average velocity is zero. Hence (a) and (d) is correct. But in this time the tip covers a distance equal to circumference of a circle of radius equal to the length of minute hand. So (b) and (c) are incorrect.
